Hello,

I am a freelancer, 22 years old, single. I have been working for a client remotley for a year and now he have invited me for business meeting. I am earning 80000 pkr on an average and i have recently visited saudi arabia. I have interview on 18 june and i have documents from my clients such as invitation letter, letter to consulate, affidavit for sponsering and his bank statement. But i do not have a job since i am self employed, neither do i have wife, nor i have property of registered business but i am earning good here in pakistan and my intentions are clear. What should i do in order to prove strong ties and i have applied for 1 week stay and b1/b2 visa.

Thank you.

None of that is going to help with showing ties unfortunately. All you can do is apply and hope.

I would make plans for attending the meeting via video conferencing.

There are no affidavits of support/sponsorship or invitations for B visas.

Thank you.

According to your information- unfortunately the officer may define, your "intention is clear" that you will come to us and not come back to your home country. 

80.000 PKR (according to google is less than 500 USD )might be good for where you live but it won't be enough for 1 week stay in US. Sponsorship is not a guarantee because yet you can not show strong ties to your homeland. 

 

I heard and saw so many cases on tv and from CBP fellows my friends and family working with,  that they turn people back just because simple no strong ties. 

different story if you could i.e. show how much money do you have in your home bank account, you have property/ies families, etc etc. 

 

Good luck

You can't show what you don't have.

Profile pic - Rainbow Tower of the Hilton Hawaiian Village - Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii.

Why this for the profile pic?  Often in movies and on TV when they show Hawaii they show this beach/view. So, instead of doing Kauai or some other locale, we decided to do here, so that whenever some show shows Hawaii and this view, we will see where we were married.
